How do you best wash a makeup sponge?

Cleaning your makeup blender is important for a fresh, even makeup look and a hygienic routine.

With these simple steps, you keep your blender clean and in top shape. 

1. Fully wet your makeup blender

  • Hold the blender under warm water.
  • Let it soak up completely.
  • This loosens makeup faster.

2. Use a mild cleanser

  • Use a brush soap.
  • Apply the soap directly to the blender.
  • Avoid aggressive products that damage the material.

3. Gently squeeze the blender clean

  • Gently massage the makeup blender.
  • Squeeze the dirt out, but never wring.
  • That prevents cracks and maintains the shape.

4. Rinse until the water runs clear

  • Rinse again under warm water.
  • Squeeze until no more color comes out.
  • A clean blender feels light and flexible.

5. Repeat for stubborn dirt

  • Do you use a lot of long-wear or waterproof products?
  • Then a second wash is perfectly normal.

6. Let your makeup blender dry well

  • Place it on a towel.
  • Let it dry in an open spot.
  • Never store it damp — that prevents bacterial growth.

Extra tips

  • Clean your makeup blender 1–2 times a week.
  • Replace it as soon as it tears or smells strange.
  • A mild cleanser extends the lifespan.
